# Breakfast & Learn: Not Every Agent Step Needs an LLM: Typed Decisions with Jev
📍 Location: AWS Office, Azrieli Sarona (121 Derech Menachem Begin), Floor 28, Auditorium
07:0013:00
*A technical talk with* Gili Nachum (Principal AI Solutions Architect, AWS) and *Nir Shney-Dor (VP of Global Solutions Architecture, Automat-it)* on where a typed decision model belongs in your agent stack, and where an LLM still does the job better.
##### The Challenge
Most AI talk right now is about generation: write the email, draft the code, summarize the doc. But much of the logic inside real software isn't generated. It's a decision. Which team should own this ticket? Is this evidence enough? Which of these matters most? Which tool should the agent call next?
Teams usually answer those questions in one of two ways. Either hand-written rules that break the moment the input gets messy, or a generative model forced to return JSON. With the second, you pay generation latency and cost for what is really a label, you still parse and validate the output, and you get no confidence score to tell you when to act automatically and when to escalate to a person.
There's a third option: a model built to decide, not generate.
##### What You'll Learn
**What Jev is.** TypeSafe AI released Jev in September 2026. What’s the big deal? Why is everyone talking about Jev?
**Why it matters for AI startups.** Stop paying generation prices for decisions. Find out which AI calls in your product a decision model can take over, and what you gain in cost, speed, and predictability.
**How it works.** Three question types (yes or no, pick one, rate it) power six reusable decision patterns: Route, Judge, Rank, Filter, Control, and Map. Bring a decision from your own product and see which pattern it fits.
**Would you put it in production?** Get a clear go/no-go: the metrics that matter, from latency to cost per accepted decision, and the four gates to clear before you ship.
